So this festive you have bought yourself a new phone! Maybe you got it from the Amazon sale. Or you found it at a great deal from a brick and mortar store. Doesn’t really matter because now you have a brand new phone in your hands and you want to have the best apps for it!
Well today we have compiled a list of top 10 must have apps for your new smartphone!
Facebook Lite

The actual facebook app that most phone come pre installed with is a huge battery drain and a constant source of annoying notifications. The Lite version of the app takes all of that away and it saves a ton of data which is a boon if you spend a lot of time on Facebook!WhatsApp

There really isn’t nothing much to say about WhatsApp that most of you guys don’t know already. It is one of the most popular instant messaging platforms around and with video as well as audio calls being enabled it is an absolute must have,Lastpass Password Manager

We have a lot of social networks and shopping apps that we need to log in to. Having a password manager like Lastpass makes it easy and hassle free. The fingerprint integration is an added bonus!Nova Launcher

Putting a launcher into a must have apps list might seem strange but trust if you are a power user and you have used Nova launcher, you will return to it immediately once the novelty of the new launcher on your phone wears off.Evernote

Many phones might come pre loaded with a Notes app but most of the time you will find them lacking. Evernote is the best note taking app period. It also serves great as a web clipper, a research tool and it also syncs across devices!VLC for Android

VLC for Android is almost as powerful as its desktop counterpart and can run most video codecs and resolutions with ease. For all your entertainment and movie watching needs, look no further than this video player!Inbox

The regular Gmail client is just too cluttered for a power user so let me welcome you to your new email client, Inbox. Using the power of AI along with Google’s immense machine learning capabilities this email client is like what Gmail will be in 5 years time. Only you can download and use it right now!Shopping Sites- Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, eBay

Now yes I promised you 10 apps and this is kind of cheating by stuffing in so many apps under one banner but can you really blame me? I like to have all of them on board as I am a deal hunter and a discount ninja, but feel free to download ones that you have had a nice experience shopping on and they deliver to your location! Or if you can’t pick and choose then download all 5!Find My Device (Previously: Android Device Manager)

This isn’t one of the fun or time saving apps on this list. Infact, this is one of those apps I hope none of you ever have to use. But in case your phone gets stolen or you misplace it, or the same happens with any one of your friends or family members, this is an invaluable app to have. This app from Google can track down your device as long as it has gps and data enabled.
